Andrew Lavallee's vision of landscape architecture is as an organizing discipline to encourage optimal outcomes in the public realm. His acumen is evident in his large-scale open-space projects in New York City: Battery Park City, Hudson River Park and the World Trade Center. His projects demonstrate to public and private development leaders the important role of landscape architects. He was an early advocate of integrated management planning, and compaction-resistant manufactured soils. Through his writing, lectures and teaching he articulates management strategies that guide sustainability practices to improve urban open space.
